Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of water turbine tailwater chambers, in particular to an inspection and maintenance access door device for an impact-type model water turbine tailwater chamber. Background Art

[0002] A Pelton turbine is a hydraulic machine that converts the kinetic energy of high-speed water into rotational mechanical energy. The tailrace chamber of a Pelton turbine primarily collects the water flowing out of the runner and directs it to the tailrace tank. Hydraulic testing of Pelton turbine models involves numerous tests and a complex testing process. During testing, operators must repeatedly install and debug the test equipment within the water distribution ring.

[0003] The existing solution requires the removal of the runner chamber downstream of the water distribution ring pipe before the installation personnel and equipment can operate the relevant equipment in the water distribution ring pipe. The process is complicated and time-consuming. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the above problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of the present utility model is to provide a maintenance access door device for the tailwater chamber of an impulse model turbine.

[0010] As a preferred solution of the present invention, the material of the entrance door is organic glass.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the tailwater chamber body has a cross-sectional shape of a regular polygon. To ensure that the water flowing out of the runner flows into the tailwater chamber unimpeded, the tailwater chamber cross-sectional shape of the Pelton turbine model test device is usually a regular polygon with the same number of sides as the number of nozzles.

[0012] As a preferred solution of the present invention, the cross-sectional shape of the tailwater chamber body is a regular hexagon.

[0013] As a preferred solution of the present invention, the entry door hole is arranged on one of the planes on the side surface of the tailwater chamber body, the shape of the entry door hole is rectangular, and the shape of the entry door is rectangular.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the diameter of the inscribed circle of the runner chamber main body cross section is D, the number of sides of the regular polygon of the tailrace chamber main body is n, and the width of the entrance opening L = 0.45D × tan(180° / n). The number of sides n of the regular polygon of the tailrace chamber main body is usually 4, 5, or 6.

[0015] As a preferred solution of the present invention, the height of the entrance hole H=0.5D.

[0016] As a preferred solution of the present invention, the minimum width and minimum height of the entrance door opening are not less than 0.6m.

[0017] As a preferred solution of the present invention, a tailwater outflow channel is further connected to the side of the tailwater chamber body.

[0018] As a preferred solution of the present invention, the entry door completely covers the entry door hole.

[0019] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0020] The entrance door of the utility model not only serves as a personnel equipment passage during installation, debugging and maintenance, but also can be used to observe the flow state of water in the runner chamber during the test process. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0033] The entrance door 2 of the utility model is made of transparent organic glass, through which the flow state of water in the tailwater chamber can be visually observed.

[0034] Wherein, the material of the entrance door 2 is organic glass.

[0035] It should be noted that the cross-section of the tailwater chamber body 1 is a regular polygon. To ensure that the water flowing out of the runner flows into the tailwater chamber without obstruction, the tailwater chamber cross-section of the impulse turbine model test device is usually a regular polygon with the same number of sides as the number of nozzles.

[0036] In this embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the tailwater chamber body 1 is a regular hexagon.

[0037] The entry door hole 11 is provided on one of the planes on the side of the tailwater chamber body 1 . The entry door hole 11 is rectangular in shape, and the entry door 2 is also rectangular in shape.

[0038] The diameter of the inscribed circle of the runner chamber main section is D, the number of sides of the regular polygon of the tailrace chamber main body 1 is n, and the width of the entrance hole 11 is L = 0.45D × tan (180° / n). The number of sides of the regular polygon of the tailrace chamber main body 1 is usually 4, 5, or 6.

[0039] The height of the entrance hole 11 is H=0.5D.

[0040] The minimum width and minimum height of the entrance door opening 11 are not less than 0.6m.

[0041] It should be noted that a sealing structure is provided between the entry door 2 and the tailwater chamber body 1 to prevent water leakage. The entry door 2 is installed on the outer wall of the tailwater chamber body 1 by bolts.

[0042] The present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned optional implementation methods. Anyone can derive various other forms of products under the inspiration of the present invention. However, no matter what changes are made in the shape or structure, any technical solution that falls within the scope defined by the claims of the present invention shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
